Police join in kids' holiday fun in Bognor
Up to 35 youngsters a day enjoyed four days of free activities based around the 39 Club. The sessions were held by police community support officers Jan Williams and Julie Jones with help from the centre.
It was the first time they had used their law and order efforts to promote summer holiday enjoyment.

The ages of those who joined in ranged from five to 15. Most were eight to 12 years old.
The fun times included a football tournament on the adjoining playing field with gold and silver medals for the winners as well as prizes for top individuals.
But there were plenty of indoor activities as well. These included arts and crafts, badge making, T-shirt printing, candle making and cookery as well as playing pool and table tennis.
